Roxy Jacenko's two-year-old daughter gets a spray-tan?

Roxy Jacenko is in the right business it seems. The celebrity publicist sure knows how to court controversy.

Jacenko, 33, posted an Instagram video last night of her daughter, Pixie, appearing to get a spray tan.

The video, uploaded from Pixie's very own Instagram account, comes with a caption saying: "It's spray-tan Thursdays with @summermisttanning super!!! - just a little bit more please Shelley - I like a deep bronze."

In the clip, as Pixie stands on a towel with a shower-cap on, a woman, presumably Shelley, runs the spray-tan gun over the two-year-old.

"Is that enough? Do you need a bit more?" asks Shelley.

"I need a bit more," Pixie replies.

"Where abouts - on the face?" Shelley asks, as Pixie points to her cheeks.

It turns out - thankfully - that the clip was all hot air. Literally.

There was no tan in the gun, only air being sprayed at the toddler, who with 19,000 followers, has more fans than her mum.

"So cute", "So flipping cute" and "Pixie you're a hoot" were the standard responses from the 550-odd people who "liked" the clip.

Pixie's account, which comes with a $200 fee for advertisers looking for product placement, is only just up and running again.

Instagram shut down Pixie's account earlier this month for breaching its terms and conditions. Users need to be at least 13 years old.

Roxy expressed her anger at the decision via her own Instagram account.

What a disappointment #Instagram has shut down @pixiecurtis #pixiecurtis Instagram today," Jacenko wrote on Instagram.

"Pretty incredible that this could happen — and frankly pretty out of order given the harmless nature of our pictures and the smile they brought to many!"

Jacenko, who gave birth to a son, Hunter, only a month ago, complained to Instagram HQ, explaining she pens her daughter's feed. A new account for Pixie was set up a day later.

Jacenko, who appeared on last year's Celebrity Apprentice, recently replied to accusations that Pixie's account was exploitative.

"I make sure the imagery is appropriate for a public space — you won't see me posting pictures that show my children doing anything other than normal kid activities — the playground, the park, family celebrations. You won't see bath shots, or shots that aren't age appropriate," she told News.

"For me, my kids are on Instagram so they can look back and say OMG is that me, and have a good laugh in times to come! I didn't start the accounts for anything other than a little fun to share with friends and family."
